Article Synopsis
  • Breast cancer cases among women in India are increasing, with many diagnosed at a later, more serious stage.
  • The late-stage diagnosis often requires a surgical procedure called axillary dissection to remove lymph nodes.
  • The article discusses the authors' methods for performing axillary dissection, specifically in cases with a high number of affected lymph nodes, which can be technically difficult.

Acrylamide is used for industrial and laboratory purposes; it also is produced during cooking of carbohydrate-rich food at high temperature. We investigated the therapeutic potential of quercetin for treatment of acute acrylamide induced injury to the spleen. We used female albino rats treated with acrylamide for 10 days followed by oral administration of quercetin in three doses for 5 days.

According to the standard paradigm, white box cryptographic primitives are used to block black box attacks and protect sensitive information. This is performed to safeguard the protected information and keys against black box assaults. An adversary in such a setting is aware of the method and can analyze many system inputs and outputs, but is blind to the specifics of how a critical instantiation primitive is implemented.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the patient care delivery paradigm rapidly shifted to remote technological solutions. Rising rates of life expectancy of older people, and deaths due to chronic diseases (CDs) such as cancer, diabetes and respiratory disease pose many challenges to healthcare. While the feasibility of Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) with a Smart Healthcare Monitoring (SHM) framework was somewhat questionable before the COVID-19 pandemic, it is now a proven commodity and is on its way to becoming ubiquitous.

Recent studies have shown that computed tomography (CT) scan images can characterize COVID-19 disease in patients. Several deep learning (DL) methods have been proposed for diagnosis in the literature, including convolutional neural networks (CNN). But, with inefficient patient classification models, the number of 'False Negatives' can put lives at risk.

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT), which is a developing technology in medical applications that assists physicians in making more informed decisions regarding patients' courses of treatment, has become increasingly widespread in recent years in the field of healthcare. On the other hand, the number of PET scans that are being performed is rising, and radiologists are getting significantly overworked as a result. As a direct result of this, a novel approach that goes by the name "computer-aided diagnostics" is now being investigated as a potential method for reducing the tremendous workloads.

Schizophrenia is a multifaceted chronic psychiatric disorder that affects the way a human thinks, feels, and behaves. Inevitably, natural randomness exists in the psychological perception of schizophrenic patients, which is our primary source of inspiration for this research because true randomness is the indubitably ultimate valuable resource for symmetric cryptography. Famous information theorist Claude Shannon gave two desirable properties that a strong encryption algorithm should have, which are confusion and diffusion in his fundamental article on the theoretical foundations of cryptography.

The protection of confidential information is a global issue, and block encryption algorithms are the most reliable option for securing data. The famous information theorist, Claude Shannon, has given two desirable characteristics that should exist in a strong cipher which are substitution and permutation in their fundamental research on "Communication Theory of Secrecy Systems." block ciphers strictly follow the substitution and permutation principle in an iterative manner to generate a ciphertext.

In recent times, the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is a new loomed technology, which has been deliberated as a promising technology designed for various and broadly connected networks. In an intelligent healthcare system, the framework of IoMT observes the health circumstances of the patients dynamically and responds to backings their needs, which helps detect the symptoms of critical rare body conditions based on the data collected. Metaheuristic algorithms have proven effective, robust, and efficient in deciphering real-world optimization, clustering, forecasting, classification, and other engineering problems.

A large amount of patient information has been gathered in Electronic Health Records (EHRs) concerning their conditions. An EHR, as an unstructured text document, serves to maintain health by identifying, treating, and curing illnesses. In this research, the technical complexities in extracting the clinical text data are removed by using machine learning and natural language processing techniques, in which an unstructured clinical text data with low data quality is recognized by Halve Progression, which uses Medical-Fissure Algorithm which provides better data quality and makes diagnosis easier by using a cross-validation approach.

The field of image processing is distinguished by the variety of functions it offers and the wide range of applications it has in biomedical imaging. It becomes a difficult and time-consuming process for radiologists to do the manual identification and categorization of the tumour. It is a complex and time-consuming procedure conducted by radiologists or clinical professionals to remove the contaminated tumour region from magnetic resonance (MR) pictures.

In experimental analysis and computer-aided design sustain scheme, segmentation of cell liver and hepatic lesions by an automated method is a significant step for studying the biomarkers characteristics in experimental analysis and computer-aided design sustain scheme. Patient to patient, the change in lesion type is dependent on the size, imaging equipment (such as the setting dissimilarity approach), and timing of the lesion, all of which are different. With practical approaches, it is difficult to determine the stages of liver cancer based on the segmentation of lesion patterns.
